A Simple Favor

Rebecca's guest hall was grand, befitting of the Bloodwing Mansion. 

Marble floors gleamed beneath chandeliers, and large paintings of past Drake family leaders adorned the walls. Yet, amidst this grandeur, an intense confrontation was taking place.

Asher's casual stroll and amused smirk made her skin crawl, "Ah, always so busy, Consort Rebecca. It's a wonder you found time for our little chat," he replied, drawing nearer with each step.

Rebecca wrinkled her nose and ignored his rude words, not wanting to engage with him.
